G6: A Graph Visualization Framework in TypeScript

中文 README

What is G6

G6 is a graph visualization engine, which provides a set of basic mechanisms, including rendering, layout, analysis, interaction, animation, and other auxiliary tools. G6 aims to simplify the relationships, and help people to obtain the insight of relational data.

Developers are able to build graph visualization analysis applications or graph visualization modeling applications easily.

Powerful Animation and Interactions

Powerful Layouts

Features

• Abundant Built-in Items: Nodes and edges with free configurations;
• Steerable Interactions: More than 10 basic interaction behaviors ;
• Powerful Layout: More than 10 layout algorithms;
• Convenient Components: Outstanding ability and performance;
• Friendly User Experience: Complete documents for different levels of user requirements. TypeScript supported.

G6 concentrates on the principle of 'good by default'. In addition, the custom mechanism of the item, interation behavior, and layout satisfies the customazation requirements.

Abundant Built-in Items

Installation

$ npm install @antv/g6

Usage

import G6 from '@antv/g6';

const data = {
  nodes: [
    {
      id: 'node1',
      label: 'Circle1',
      x: 150,
      y: 150,
    },
    {
      id: 'node2',
      label: 'Circle2',
      x: 400,
      y: 150,
    },
  ],
  edges: [
    {
      source: 'node1',
      target: 'node2',
    },
  ],
};

const graph = new G6.Graph({
  container: 'container',
  width: 500,
  height: 500,
  defaultNode: {
    type: 'circle',
    size: [100],
    color: '#5B8FF9',
    style: {
      fill: '#9EC9FF',
      lineWidth: 3,
    },
    labelCfg: {
      style: {
        fill: '#fff',
        fontSize: 20,
      },
    },
  },
  defaultEdge: {
    style: {
      stroke: '#e2e2e2',
    },
  },
});

graph.data(data);
graph.render();

Development

$ npm install

# lerna bootstrap for multiple packages
$ npm run bootstrap

# build the packages
$ npm run build:all

# if you wanna watch one of the packages, e.g. packages/core
$ cd ./packages/core
$ npm run watch

# run test case
$ npm test

# run test case in watch mode
npm test -- --watch ./tests/unit/algorithm/find-path-spec
DEBUG_MODE=1 npm test -- --watch ./tests/unit/algorithm/find-path-spec

React project integration

For React project integration, we have an independent product recommendation: Graphin, which is a toolkit based on G6 and React, that focuses on relational visual analysis. It's simple, efficient, out of the box.

At present, Graphin has good practices in business graph analysis projects. For details, see 《Who uses Graphin》

Online Analysis Tool：G6VP

If you have a piece of relational data (graph data) and want to quickly visualize it online and analyze it efficiently, then we recommend using the official G6VP, which supports local File JSON, Excel, and graph data sources such as TuGraph, Neo4J, and GraphScope are also supported. With 60+ built-in analysis assets, graph analysis can be as simple as building blocks. The platform also provides one-click export of SDK, which can be quickly integrated into the business system
